Shades of Orange
Sex! Betrayal! Suspense! A smoking gun, er, scarf!
What do all these things have in common? You'll just have to watch Team Red Card's submission for the 48 Hour Film Project to find out. Remember, we had just 48 hours from the time we were given a genre (silent), prop (fish), character (Ms. Perkinson, substitute teacher) and line of dialogue ("you look very familiar") to write, shoot, edit and score a 4-7 minute film. Here's what we made:
It's kind of hard to read some of the post-its because of the YouTube factor, so I'll just tell you that they say "walked today," "left early" and "why don't you look very familiar anymore?"
It took me a few minutes to figure out where this was going. Nice twist at the end. You also managed to pull of the dialogue with Post-its very well. Not bad at all for 48 hours of work!
Funny note: At the beginning, I thought you were eating goldfish! :)

*snicker* Nice orange forehead at the end. Now that I say that, maybe I missed something in those 7 minutes of wonderment. :) 48 Hour Film Project is a cool idea!

That was really clever! I thought you were eating goldfish too for a second... ha! This is totally going in my youtube favorites, like, oh my god! ;-)

It got better and better, then - that twist!
Nice job, I see you wrote it with your fellow actors too.
